    As professional as it gets

    From the moment we called them to the moment we completed we were treated like we were their only clients. Regular communications and updates put our minds at ease and kept us in the loop. There were no sugar coating expectations and we were given exactly what information we needed at the times we needed it. Zoe and Marzenna were an absolute pleasure to work with. Both very experienced and their knowledge on all aspects of moving home is unrivalled. Not that I plan moving again any time soon but, if we did, we’d be straight on the phone to Chris Stevenson Solicitors. Thank you to all involved. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

    Exceptional service and professionalism

    am extremely impressed with the service I received from Chris Stevenson Solicitors during my recent house purchase. Oliver Machin handled every stage of the process with the highest level of professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail, ensuring that completion was achieved smoothly and without unnecessary stress. Communication was always clear and timely, and the whole experience was seamless from start to finish. I would have no hesitation in recommending Oliver and the team at Chris Stevenson Solicitors to anyone seeking reliable and exemplary legal representation.

    Extremely disappointing service. Despite numerous emails and calls, I have had no response at all. The onboarding paperwork for my property was completed over a month ago, yet there has been no progress, and even the buyer’s solicitor is now chasing for the contract pack. Communication is completely lacking, which is unacceptable for something as time-sensitive as conveyancing. I would not recommend this firm.

    from Chris Stevenson Solicitors

    Sandra, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you are disappointed with the communication and progress on your matter. This is not the standard of service we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Your comments will be reviewed with the team.

    I used Chris Stevenson’s Solicitors for conveyancing on a property sale (sale late July 2025, completion 12 Dec 2025). Overall I was disappointed with the service. There was a slow start after the memorandum of sale and I had to chase repeatedly for updates and progress (a very high number of calls). Communication was inconsistent, it was often difficult to reach the person dealing with the file, and I didn’t have clear visibility of what was outstanding. I also experienced repeated requests for documents/confirmations and an issue with documents I provided not being located initially, which caused avoidable delay. During the transaction I was informed of a data protection-related issue involving another client’s information, which understandably reduced confidence. I’ve raised a formal complaint and requested a full chronology and resolution.

    from Chris Stevenson Solicitors

    Thank you for taking the time to provide detailed feedback about your conveyancing experience. We're very sorry to hear that the service fell short of your expectations. Your account of repeated chasing, inconsistent communication, difficulties reaching the person handling your file, unclear visibility of outstanding actions, and problems locating documents is worrying and understandably frustrating. We take complaints and requests for a full chronology and resolution very seriously. we appreciate you raising a formal complaint; we will ensure your concerns are investigated thoroughly, that a clear timeline of events is compiled, and that appropriate steps are taken to address any failings and improve our processes. Thank you again for highlighting these matters and giving us the opportunity to put them right.

    I have over a period of time instructed Oliver Machin of Chris Stevenson Solicitors various files including several property purchases, sales, and the preparation of legal packs for auction sales. Oliver consistently demonstrated professionalism and high competency throughout the entire process. I am incredibly confident in his ability to handle cases with varying levels of complexity, as he manages both simple and complex files with equal skill and attention to detail. I wholeheartedly recommend Oliver and Chris Stevenson Solicitors for anyone looking for expert legal assistance in property matters. Aiden Property investor, Doncaster, South Yorkshire

    We recently completed the sale of our old house and the purchase of our new one with Marzenna and her team, and we couldn’t be more grateful for all their help. They guided us through every step of the process with patience, persistence, and clear communication. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and we were always kept informed of progress throughout. It was such a relief to finally complete, and we’re already getting started on our new renovation project! Marzenna’s support made the whole experience so much smoother and far less stressful than it could have been. We’d highly recommend Marzenna and the team to anyone buying or selling a property — truly first-class service from start to finish. Carl & Leanne

    I have used Chris Stevenson solicitors twice now in the last nine months, the first time was to sell my house, and recently the purchase of a new property. On both occasions I was dealt with by a lady called Marzenna, an absolute star and her employers should be proud of her. Every step of the way, she explained things in terms that I could understand, and reassured me, particularly with the most recent purchase which to say the least, was challenging. I won't hesitate to recommend this company to anyone all the interactions I had with all the staff fantastic! Thanks for everything Marzenna, and everyone else. Chris Flynn.

      Excellent support, glad to have choose Chris Stevenson Solicitors to represent me

      I am so grateful for the outstanding support Hannah provided throughout my case. From our very first conversation, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, empathy, and expertise that immediately put me at ease. Hannah took the time to fully understand my situation, explained every step clearly in plain English, and kept me regularly updated with honest, practical advice. Her attention to detail and proactive approach made a real difference, and thanks to her hard work we achieved an excellent outcome that exceeded my expectations. She was responsive, reassuring, and went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported during what could have been a stressful process. I couldn’t recommend Hannah and the team at Chris Stevenson Solicitors more highly – truly excellent service.

      Calm, Professional and Reassuring Representation During Police Interview

      I was represented by Emma Burkinshaw during a police interview under caution. I found her to be calm, professional, clear and reassuring throughout what was a very stressful situation. Before the interview, Emma took time to understand the background, explain the process, and make sure I understood the legal position and the possible implications. She gave practical, balanced advice without being alarmist, and helped me approach the interview in a measured and sensible way. During the process, she was composed and supportive, and I felt that she properly understood both the immediate allegation and the wider context around it. Her advice helped me stay focused, factual and calm. I was very grateful for her representation and would recommend her to anyone needing clear and professional support in a police station setting.
